Waterville Valley Resort has a dogsled option that will begin running this winter. The “Snow Dogz” program offers a choice of several excursions that will run every weekend. Guests have the opportunity to experience the unique tours by moonlight or headlight. Guests can expect to meet the trail guide and the dogs before the tour begins. Following the excursion, guests will have a photo opportunity with the musher and her team of dedicated dogs.

To keep the sled dogs in healthy condition, there is a maximum weight limit of 240 pounds. Participants must be at least 7 years old, and at least 11 years old to ride alone. Up to three sleds can be made available to go out on each run. Reservations will be necessary, and available through the Town Square Condos front desk office. Gift certificates are also available.

It is a wonderful union of friendship and commitment between human and canine. The dogs are more than just trail companions; they have received extensive obedience training as well as their special training for dog sledding.
